Logistics is considered to be the delivery of needed goods to the needed place (or person) at the needed time． In this study, we will design an automated logistics system using Work Design, a design thinking method． For this purpose, "logistics is to deliver needed goods to where (or to whom) they are needed, when they are needed, in as automated a manner as possible" is added before the last part of the definition above． In Work Design, logistics operations are designed in the order of time． In addition, the order is always repeated from the whole to the design of the parts． There are several other features, but it is thought that designing by Work Design facilitates the emergence of automation ideas．
